Summary

[edit]
Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description Still from a short video released by Hamas. The video allegedly shows Israeli children being treated well by militants during the attack in Kibbutz Holit on 7 October 2023. The main part of the image shows the toddler being communicated with by Hamas militants, and the baby being held and pushed backwards and forwards in a pram. The message of the video is given in the part from which the still has been taken. The militant pictured is holding the toddler and baby (on the right, the still was taken purposely not to show the baby’s face). In the still the militant says (in Arabic, translated on the screen) "Look how merciful our hearts are." Followed a few frames later by, "We aren’t killing children like you are."

Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Holit massacre
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) The video has its own section in the Holit massacre article "Casualties and Hostages" section. That section discusses the release of the video, its purpose from the Hamas perspective and the IDF response to it, as well as its only partial verification. The still illustrates the purpose for which Hamas released the video.

(WP:NFCC#1)
The still shows at a glance the purpose of the video better than text (which is also included) can.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) The video only pertains to Holit, and reporting is no longer ongoing, so there is no other article which need the image.
